Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
1 clove garlic, minced
6 pork chops
salt and pepper to taste
1 can (225g) mushrooms, drained
240 ml dry sherry
1 can (300g) beef broth
2 tablespoons cornstarch
30 ml water

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, then brown them in the skillet for about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer the pork chops to a baking pan or Dutch oven.
Step 3
Pour the mushrooms into the skillet with the pork drippings and garlic. Add the sherry and beef broth, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to a boil, then pour the mixture over the pork chops in the baking pan. Cover with a lid or aluminum foil.
Step 4
Bake for 45 minutes, then uncover and continue baking for another 15 minutes.
Step 5
Transfer the chops to a serving platter. Place the baking pan on the stovetop over medium heat. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water. When the pan juices come to a boil, slowly stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook until thickened, about 2 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the chops and serve.
Step 6
Note: For a thicker gravy, use more cornstarch mixed with water to reach the desired consistency.
